PNOMH PENH, Cambodia: Yeah, right. A clandestine Khmer Rouge radio broadcast claimed today that Pol Pot was captured Thursday night by a group of former comrades now loyal to Cambodia's royalist premier. Nobody's actually seem Pol Pot in captivity, of course, except the various groups that have claimed to hold him. Having just admitted they were wrong when they claimed to have captured him, Royalist government officials now are reluctant to say what they know.

In other words, no, except at those times when the answer...
...Bird, and the release of obscure tracks such as the fifth take of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band and the seventh take of Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! By now, it seems, the Beatles' entire recording history has been exhumed and made public, except perhaps for outtakes from Ringo's answering machine. But with the anthologies fading in the rearview mirror, we can finally hear some new music from McCartney. And although his Beatles glory years may be boxed and packaged along with those anthologies, McCartney's just released solo album, Flaming Pie (Capitol), shows...
